Mayor’s office to seek Restore NY funds to rehab St. Clement’s Parish building
Summary
The mayor’s office proposed a Restore New York grant application for $1,000,000 with a $100,000 match to rehabilitate a century-old 15,000-square-foot St. Clement’s Parish building into a resource center offering education, health and social services; Living Waters Comfort Center will contribute match resources.
The mayor’s office told the council it will seek a Restore New York grant requesting $1,000,000 with a $100,000 match composed of staff time, planning in-kind contributions and Living Waters fundraising to rehabilitate a century-old 15,000-square-foot building on the St. Clement’s Parish campus.
The project vision is to create a resource center to serve people in need with education, health and social services; officials said several years were spent identifying an appropriate reuse and that a local nonprofit (Living Waters Comfort Center, incorporated in 2023) has been established to pursue the project. The mayor said: "The vision is the development of a resource center that will, serve the less fortunate. It will provide education, health services, social services and community services." The council will vote on applying for the grant at an upcoming meeting.
